The attempt to trace in some detail and to indicate to some extent the influence of Milton upon the conceptions and language of Thomson, Gray, and, Collins; to show that their obligation to him is something more specific than can be indicated along "general lines"; to point out the indebtedness of Collins and Gray to Milton's versification, and to posit some evidence in the matter of Thomson's debt to Milton in form, is the province of this paper.
